Salihin gets CIBAFI accreditation

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 28 (Bernama) -- Salihin Shariah Advisory (Salihin) has become an accredited agent of the General Council for Islamic Banks and Institution (CIBAFI) to promote its professional certifications and training programmes in Malaysia.

An agency agreement signed between CIBAFI and Salihin in Bahrain recently, allowed the latter to promote and market 10 professional certificates, five diplomas and one executive professional master programme.

Salihin's chief executive officer, Assoc. Prof Dr Ahcene Lahsasna, said the collaboration with CIBAFI will contribute significantly to the enrichment of the quality of Islamic finance education in Malaysia.

“The CIBAFI professional certifications and training programmes cover Islamic accounting, auditing, takaful, capital market, trade finance, risk management, governance and compliance.

"These internationally recognised professional certificates will complement the existing Islamic Finance courses offered in Malaysia,” he said in a statement here today.

CIBAFI is an international organisation established in 2001 and headquartered in Bahrain.

Affiliated with the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, CIBAFI represents the Islamic financial services industry globally, defending and promoting its role, consolidating co-operation among members, and with other institutions with similar interests and objectives.

With more than 125 members from more than 34 jurisdictions, representing market players, international intergovernmental organisations and professional firms, and industry associations, CIBAFI was recognised as a key piece in the international architecture of Islamic finance.

“Salihin Shariah Advisory, through its education facilities at the headquarters in Malaysia, would like to take this opportunity to invite interested professionals, students and academicians to join CIBAFI programmes and become CIBAFI Certified," said Ahcene.
